"A cool, fresh and densely fruited nose of crushed citrus, green
apple and mineral reduction gives way to seriously concentrated and
overtly muscular flavors that possess a suave and silky mouth feel
yet do not lack for an underlying reserve of power. This isn't as
fine as the Montrachet but it's even longer, at least at present
with a chewy character that provides evidence of the massive levels
of extract. Even so, don't buy this with the intention of drinking
it young as it will require plenty of cellar time, at least if you
want to see its full potential realized." (93-96 pts. Allen
Meadows, Burghound #43, Feb. 2011)
